The Marble Index came out of Hamilton, Ontario, in 2001 and took their name from Nico's album The Marble Index, which tells you they had taste. The lineup was a lean trio: Brad Germain on guitars and vocals, Ryan Tweedle on bass and Adam Knickle on drums.
Their self-titled album came out on MapleMusic Recordings in 2004, and it's a tight, punchy slab of guitar rock, all driving rhythms and hooky choruses. "Not So Bright" is the standout, a wiry, catchy blast, and "I Believe" backs it up. The band wound down by 2010, leaving that record as their calling card.
